Your Choice Brochure Project
You are going to create a tri-fold brochure similar to the one described in the Introduction to Publisher. The subject of the brochure is up to you and you must remain on that subject throughout the entire brochure. You may gather images and text from the Internet to help you.
Guidelines:
  • Subject is entirely up to you (within reason) and you must stay with that subject throughout the entire brochure
  • Create a new business information set or use the one we created yesterday – make sure all the information is provided
  • If you choose to use a template, all graphics and text must be replaced with your own work
  • Address all panels on both pages of the brochure (when you are done I should see nothing but the graphics and information you have added)
  • Bullet some information to avoid getting excessively “wordy”
  • No less than 3 graphics (you may get Photoshop-y with your images, see below)
  • Maintain the page margins that Publisher sets up (do not go over the margins)
  • Choose a font scheme and color scheme that is easily read
  • Experiment with page borders to see if they help the look of your document
  • Use effects such as Bold, Underline and Italics to break up you information
  • Provide a caption under the graphics
  • Maintain a fair amount of white space
Feel like gettin' Photoshop-y but not quite sure how to use it yet?

Before calling your work “done” have two of your neighbors look at your flyer and ask them if you have all the required information and do they feel like your brochure is informative and covers your subject well or did you just throw something together to satisfy the assignment.
